Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

While everyone was still envious of the future prospects of the rich grandfather and grandson, Qideng Zhenren envied Luo Chen from the bottom of his heart.

He even didn't even do the superficial work of beating around the bush, and directly stated his request!

"I wonder if Brother Luo Daoist can give up that Tianji Pill?"

Luo Chen stopped at the mountain path.

So it was for this!

No wonder, he was still wondering why Qideng Zhenren would stand up for him despite the pressure from so many families. It turned out that he had set his sights on his Tianji Pill.

And the time was just right, not too early or too late.

It was as if he had been waiting for him to come out, which showed that he had been planning for a long time.

Qideng Zhenren took two more steps, and when he noticed that Luo Chen stopped, he also stopped.

Turning back, he said frankly: "You may not know that the Tianji Pill is the key to our late Nascent Soul cultivators' promotion to the Spiritualization. For your current realm, it is of no great use. Taking it can only increase your mana and improve one or two small realms."

"This kind of treasure is coveted by the Yuanhou cultivators, including those powerful people from big families. They just focused on the Dongtian Competition before, and there were too many people around, so it was difficult to ask. When they come to their senses, someone will definitely come to the door."

"By then, you will face the pressure of the major families, and maybe the great men of Tianyuan Dao Sect will also be interested."

"You, can't protect him!"

Luo Chen raised his mouth slightly and asked back: "What about you, elder? Can you protect him?"

Elder Qideng nodded confidently.

"Of course I can protect him! With my late Nascent Soul realm, I am one of the five elders of Xingmen, and this pill comes from the hands of the former Xingmen elder Dan Sheng!"

Luo Chen nodded in understanding.

With his own Nascent Soul realm in the early stage and the identity of a newly arrived foreign affairs guest, it is indeed difficult to keep the Tianji Pill.

But no matter the other party's strength or identity, or even the origin with the Dan Saint, the whole Zhongzhou will not force the other party to take it.

Seeing Luo Chen nod, Elder Qideng was delighted.

"You agreed?"

Luo Chen suddenly asked: "Since this pill is so valuable, and even related to the key to our Nascent Soul promotion to the God Transformation, what will you exchange for it?"

Elder Qideng hesitated for a moment, and wanted to use the favor he had spoken for the other party as a reward, but it was obvious that this wanderer was not that stupid.

Even if he hadn't spoken before, as long as the Tianyuan Sect Master appeared, no one dared to break the rules.

Therefore, that favor was dispensable.

But it was obvious that he was also fully prepared!

"I have practiced for more than 900 years in my life, and have traveled all over the three continents, collecting countless treasures."

"You have just become a Yuanying not long ago, and you are a casual cultivator. I think you lack a magic weapon. I have more than ten magic weapons for you to choose from, and there is also a real killing weapon."

"Not only that, I also have three fourth-level exercises and a set of incomplete fifth-level exercises, which are enough to meet the needs of Daoist cultivation in the Yuanying period."

"Do you lack elixirs..."

As expected of a Yuanying for many years, Elder Qideng is indeed worth a lot of money. As soon as he opened his mouth, he offered all kinds of dazzling conditions.

Finally.

"Daoyou is still a foreign affairs guest, and it is quite inconvenient to practice in Tiandi Peak. If you agree, I will persuade the other elders to make you a real guest of Xingmen, and even promote you to the position of worship after two hundred years!"

Faced with the tempting conditions one by one, Luo Chen was slightly silent.

Because of this silence, Elder Qideng became more and more happy, which meant that the other party was tempted.

However, the result was…

“Sorry, I have already taken that pill.”

The elder Qideng was stunned, and then showed a look of disbelief.

“Although you have been in the cave for fifty years, you have to protect…”

A strong momentum slowly emerged, and the old man’s words stopped abruptly.

The third level of the Nascent Soul!

He was not wrong, the other party was at the third level of the Nascent Soul.

Although the fluctuation of mana was a little impetuous, it was precisely because of that impetuousness that this soaring realm seemed more credible.

Everyone knows that before entering the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, Luo Chen’s realm was the first level of the Nascent Soul.

But now, in one year in the outside world, the cave heaven has soared two small realms. That is definitely not something that can be obtained by hard work. Only by taking the wonderful elixir like the Tianji Pill can it be achieved in one fell swoop.

No wonder he can kill people in the cave heaven, and no one is his opponent.

The third level of the Nascent Soul has the ability to crush his peers who have broken through for less than a hundred years!

But in this case, wouldn't his previous behavior seem so ridiculous in the eyes of the other party?

Just when Qideng Zhenren was dissatisfied, his expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously stepped back a few steps away from Luo Chen.

"No?"

"More than that!"

Beside Luo Chen, a strange power was slowly spreading.

As soon as he touched it, he felt that his body, which was already too old and weak due to his age, had a sense of withering and aging.

It was like an old tree shivering at the coming of autumn and winter.

Qideng Zhenren swallowed his saliva, "Have you realized it?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, pinched a spell, and the radiating mana fluctuations and the true meaning of withering and flourishing were forcibly suppressed in his body.

"Sorry, although I am very tempted by the conditions you gave, I can't do anything about it."

Elder Qideng opened his mouth and finally sighed.

He always paid attention to the cave heaven competition and rushed to trade with Luo Chen before others, but he was still a step late.

As expected, destiny does not allow you to force it!

He shook his head, and the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared.

Whether his attitude changed just because he couldn't get the Tianji Pill or because Luo Chen showed the potential to comprehend the true meaning of the law in advance, it is unknown.

"If that's the case, then forget it."

Luo Chen bowed his hands and thanked the other party sincerely.

"You spoke up for me before, and I will remember this favor."

Elder Qideng forced a smile. That little favor was of little use.

But Luo Chen's words were not finished.

"Just now you mentioned that you can upgrade my guest status to a formal guest. Is this true?"

Elder Qideng nodded, but he was not as enthusiastic as before.

"If you can still take out a precious pill like the Tianji Pill, I will run for you."

Obviously, no!

Even if Luo Chen still has a Yanfa Pill that is more precious than the Tianji Pill, he will never take it out.

Perhaps realizing that his tone was a bit stiff, Elder Qideng adjusted his mentality a little and asked curiously: "Actually, at your age, your status as a guest official of the Star Gate is not that important, right?"

"It's really not that important to me personally. A piece of spiritual land and a cave are enough. But..."

Luo Chen nodded first, then changed the subject.

"But Luo is not completely alone. I also have Taoist disciples and spiritual pets and servants. They also need a place to stand."

So that's it.

Chen Qideng understood what the other party meant instantly.

The official guest official of the Star Gate still has some power compared to the foreign affairs guest official.

One of the points is that you can introduce close people to the Star Gate.

Even if you don't practice in Tiandi Peak, the Dao Sect can plan a site for you to live.

And if Luo Chen stays in the Star Gate for 500 years, his descendants will have the opportunity to enter the Tianyuan Dao Sect to practice.

Obviously, Luo Chen sought the status of a formal guest official for this purpose.

Qideng Zhenren thought about it, and perhaps because the other party showed potential that was no less than Tianyuan Zhenchuan at a young age, he decided to sell it out and reveal some inside information.

"This matter is not difficult. The reason why you cannot become a formal guest official is that you are too young and have not made any achievements."

"Right now, there is a great opportunity for you to become a formal guest official with your merits."

Excellent opportunity!

Luo Chen was startled and remembered something.

Before he entered the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, he met Hui Yuanhong through the introduction of Elder Qideng. The other party has indeed filled the vacancy of Dan Sheng's ascension and has become one of the 19 elders of Tiandi Peak.

At that time, the other party also said something similar in order to win over Luo Chen.

Said that he came at the right time.

And now, Elder Qideng also said so.

"I don't know, what is that opportunity?"

Elder Qideng took a deep breath and stopped speaking orally, but transmitted the message with his consciousness.

"Tianyuan Dao Sect has decided to send troops to Beihai and Ximo continents after the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven is closed. The former is to conquer the Beihai cultivation world and incorporate it into the Tianyuan territory. You came from Beihai, so you must be familiar with that place. At that time, you will go to Beihai with the Tianyuan army to attack cities and fortresses for Tianyuan, and to open up mountains and seas. With your ability, the so-called merit will surely come easily."

"When the time comes, as a meritorious person, I will speak for you on the Xingmen side, and Fu Qinglan on the Dao Sect side will not be stingy to say a few good words for you."

"In this way, not only the official guest status, but also the position of worship will be within your reach."

After saying that, Elder Qideng had nothing to say, and left somewhat uninterested.

After he left, Luo Chen frowned slightly.

He had expected that Tianyuan Dao Sect might send troops to Beihai.

But would he still go back to Beihai?

…

Since Luo Chen left the cave, the passage of time has slowed down.

It’s not the change in life span, but waiting for such things always makes people feel like the days are passing by like years!

The competition is still going on.

As long as the true disciples inside have not come out, or have not fallen, it must continue.

After a rough calculation, the people inside can at least hold on for fifty years before reaching the limit, which is half a year in the outside world.

Only after everyone comes out will the so-called competition ranking be evaluated to determine the sect rewards.

But no matter what, Fu Qinglan, who was the first to realize the true meaning of the law and came out in advance, is already the first place!

This also means that Luo Chen has fulfilled his promise to Fu Chaosheng perfectly and even beyond imagination.

At the same time, it also means that Luo Chen has no worries in Zhongzhou!

Regarding the Tianyuan Dao Sect’s conquest of the North Sea and the expansion of territory, Luo Chen privately thought seriously and found that it was indeed a good opportunity for him.

He is not unfamiliar with the North Sea, and there are still many grievances that have not been resolved.

If he went with the army as a guest of Star Gate, he could kill two birds with one stone.

But before that, he planned to go back to the East Wilderness first and bring back those people in his memory that were about to blur to Zhongzhou.

Luo Chen had already roughly decided on the day of departure.

When the competition ended, it was the time for him to leave Zhongzhou and return to the East Wilderness.

At present, the changes in the outside world and the discussions about Luo Chen, Fu Qinglan and others had nothing to do with him.

Alone, he practiced quietly in Cave No. 78 of Tiandi Peak.

Just like the cultivation he showed in front of Elder Qideng before, he was indeed at the third level of Yuanying at this moment.

But it was different from what Elder Qideng thought, that he had just entered the third level of Yuanying!

His realm was improving quite fast!

He had been lingering at the peak of the first level of the Nascent Soul for a long time, and he used the God of Withering and Flourishing to suppress the rapid improvement of his cultivation.

After entering the cave, he naturally advanced to the second level of the Nascent Soul within a few years.

In the next few decades, he basically spent time consolidating his realm.

Logically speaking, Luo Chen would have been satisfied with his realm improvement to this point.

But when he had an epiphany, he entered the depths of the ocean of vitality in this world, and after realizing the true meaning of withering and flourishing, he received a sum of vitality in return.

That is the essence of this world!

It is a collection of spiritual energy!

Even if ordinary people get vitality in return, they will not be able to perfectly refine it due to the different properties of their cultivation mana, and can only absorb part of it.

However, Luo Chen absorbed 80% to 90%!

The huge vitality directly pushed his realm to the third level of the Nascent Soul in one breath, and even climbed to the fourth level of the Nascent Soul at one time!

In this case, Luo Chen initially thought that it was caused by the promotion of the True Fire of Withering and Flourishing to the fifth level, but later he found that it was caused by his own physique.

At this moment, Luo Chen looked at the attribute panel, and the "Five Spirits Dao Body" entry, which had been quietly hidden next to the Fire Spirit Body for a long time, was emitting a faint light.

"Why is it bright?"

"Is it because I have realized the true meaning of the law?"

"But my true meaning of withering and flourishing is also the true meaning of the law of fire attribute, shouldn't it be... huh?"

In the cave, Luo Chen showed a very rare look of surprise.

This was the first time he opened the attribute panel after his epiphany.

Originally, he wanted to see his true situation through the data on the panel, and was also curious about why the Five Spirits Dao Body suddenly awakened.

But the changes on the panel were somewhat unexpected.

Not to mention the addition of a new attribute entry [Law], the prefix of [True Meaning of Withering and Flourishing] under that entry was not fire, but wood!

This really caught Luo Chen off guard.

Since the Jindan period's life-long skills were switched to the fire attribute, he abandoned all other attributes for more than 160 years and only immersed himself in the fire system.

Logically speaking, the true meaning of the law he realized should also be of the fire attribute.

But the true meaning of withering and flourishing is indeed classified as wood attribute on the attribute panel.

He Luo Chen may be wrong, but the attribute panel has never been wrong.

So why is this the case?

Luo Chen pondered.

"Is it because I focused on the wood attribute when I was refining Qi and building my foundation? My foundation is in wood?"

"Or was it that I was influenced by Fu Qinglan who was comprehending the origin of wood in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven?"

"Or, does the withering and flourishing true fire itself have attributes and is classified as wood?"

"If that's the case, then it's understandable that the withering and flourishing true meaning is classified as wood attribute. After all, when I was comprehending, what I saw and heard were mostly the transformation of life and death, the growth and decline of all things, not the explosion and tyranny of fire, but more like the withering and flourishing of wood."

"In this way, I can understand the awakening of the Five Spirits Dao Body. I broke free from the shackles of the Fire Spirit Body and comprehended the true meaning of other laws."

"Does that mean that if I can comprehend the true meaning of the laws of other attributes, the Five Spirits Dao Body can be fully awakened and cover the Fire Spirit Body?"

In a vague way, Luo Chen seemed to see a way to rebuild the Dao Body.

Even if that road seemed a little illusory, even too ambitious.

Just when Luo Chen was about to study the changes on the attribute panel carefully to adjust his next practice plan, his cave welcomed the first visitor.

Luo Chen's mind moved, and he stretched out his hand and a sound transmission talisman flew in.

After a while.

Luo Chen stared at the old man in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Friend Fu, you have kept it a secret from me!"
